This new application note describes the analysis of 7 RNA markers (100 – 1000 bases) using the recently introduced bioinert YMC-Accura Triart Bio C4 column at pH 7 and 80 °C. While conventional column hardware leads to peak tailing and loss of recovery when analysing oligonucleotides, the bioinert coated YMC-Accura Triart Bio C4 column shows excellent recoveries and peak shapes for all 7 well resolved markers...
AMSBIO announce a new range of different isolation products for fast, scalable, and reproducible purification of Extracellular Vesicles (EV), including exosomes, as well as addressing EV heterogeneity and high throughput solutions for biomarker discovery. Traditionally ultracentrifugation has been the favored method for EV isolation or separation. Though it is still widely used, ultracentrifugation not only tends to alter the vesicle shape and functionality but is time-consuming and requires expensive equipment...
Operating from room temperature up to 80° C, with high thermal stability, the TESTA Analytical Differential Refractive Index (DRI) detector offers highly accurate and reliable determination of absolute concentration and total mass balance in GPC/SEC applications. DRI detectors are the most commonly used GPC/SEC detectors because of their universal applicability; they do not require chromophores to be present in the analyte...
Agilent Technologies Inc. has announced the deployment of the next generation of alarm resolution technology for checkpoints throughout London Heathrow airport, delivering advanced security and efficiency. The Insight200M from Agilent ensures increased safety on planes while improving passenger experience at airports. The ban on liquids in carry-on luggage was slowly lifted to allow baby food, medicinal items, and duty-free items, and there is a continuous shift...
Agilent Technologies Inc. has announced the release of the AssayMAP Bravo Protein Sample Prep Workbench 4.0 software. This release adds 21 CFR Part 11 compliance-enabling features that allow AssayMAP Bravo-based automated sample preparation in workflows across the biopharma drug development process. The requirement for labs to use instruments that comply with regulatory guidelines such as 21 CFR Part 11 or have the option of...
ACD/Labs, an informatics company that develops and commercializes software in support of R&D, has announced the release of version 2022 software applications on the Spectrus® platform, and updates to Percepta® platform software. “Analytical data utilization ‘beyond just-in-time’ decision making grows every year,” said Andrew Anderson, Vice President of Innovation and Informatics Strategy, ACD/Labs...
Waters Corporation has announced a new Per-and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) quantitation workflow enabled by enhancements to its waters_connect™ for quantitation software. Through a combination of Waters™ ultra-sensitive instrumentation, sample prep chemistries and software, the end-to-end workflow simplifies and automates the measurement of PFAS in food, soil, air, and water at parts-per-quadrillion levels that meet and exceed regulatory detection limits...
Sartorius BIA Separations (BIA), a leading bio-chromatography company, now part of the international life science group Sartorius, and Exopharm Ltd., a company at the forefront of transformative medicines using exosomes, or extracellular vesicles (EVs), announced they have entered into a formal collaboration. The two companies have signed a Material Transfer Agreement and associated collaborative programme that aims to exploit the synergy...
Perfect skin, clear conscience. Asynt reports how sustainable cosmetics innovator – Keracol Ltd (Leeds, UK) is using its DrySyn heating blocks and CondenSyn air condensers in the development and scale-up of their award-winning Dr Craft Mandarin green beauty product range.

For labs looking to improve accuracy, reproducibility, and yield from liquid phase chemical reactions -TESTA Analytical Solutions e.K has developed the Chemistry flowmeter. Accurately measuring the rate of addition of liquid reagents is a critical consideration for many labs undertaking batch or flow chemistry reactions. When using peristaltic or piston pumps to add expensive chemicals or other fluids into a reaction, labs must ensure the rate of addition is both accurate and constant as part of quality control...
Earlier this month, Alfa Chemistry announced the launch of acylation reagents, a type of derivatization reagents frequently used in Gas Chromatography (GC) analysis, and other instrumental analytical scenarios. In order to bring out the best chromatographic analysis effect, sample compounds need to meet a few criteria, for instance, high-temperature resistance and rapid transformation into the vapor state without degradation....
